i would urge people to think about -- the second treatise of government. markey is looking better and better in the middle east. if there is one country -- monarchy is looking better and better in the middle east. if there is one country that has figured it out, it is morocco. >> my basic argument for the proposition on our side of the debate is an argument for reality. open your eyes and seeing where we are today, two years into these uprisings and changes. in region of the world just narrowly focused on the middle east, which has about 20 countries, the vaccine political change in four of them. -- you have seen political change in four of them. we're at the start of a process. our response from washington has been very philosophical and intellectual, but not very operational. this process is moving forward. when you look at the demographic, social, economic pressures that these societies face -- as some of these countries, political islamist forces will come to power. politics is becoming much more complicated in the middle east. what worries me the most

our two governments maintain not just the formal u.s.israel strategic dialogue, but a daily dialogue, sometimes an hourly dialogue, at every level. in a season of tight budgets, u.s. assistance to israel is at a record high. and over the past few weeks, i have heard from israelis the gratitude they felt when, after hearing the sirens, they saw a second rocket launch, and knew that was iron dome, making them safer. america has helped keep israel's qualitative military edge as strong as ever. and prime minister netanyahu has described our security cooperation and overall partnership with israel as "unprecedented." our shared obsession with innovation is also bringing us closer together. google executive chairman eric schmidt recently called israel "the most important high tech center in the world, after the united states." so it is no surprise that our diplomatic challenge is not only about a dialogue of strategic and political interests, including not just our soldiers and our politicians, but increasingly including our techies and our venture capitalists and our entrepreneurs. since i

societal breakdown can't be solved by government, but it also can't be ignored by government. helping people make it into the middle class is a personal issue for me. my parents worked in the service industry. in almost any other nation on earth, their jobs would barely provide for daily living much less a better future. but in america, my parents made it to the middle class. today, the journey my parents made from poor immigrants to middle class, it's harder than it was in their time because the world has changed. the economy has changed. but whether or not the journey my parents made is still possible to all who are willing to work for it, well that will decide whether america will decline or whether america will remain exceptional. the emergence of a strong, 21st century american middle class is the answer to our most pressing challenges. and it all starts with our people. in our hotel kitchens, in the landscaping crews working in our neighborhoods, and in the late night janitorial shifts that clean our offices. there. there you will find the dreams america was built on. th
